Multiple glomuvenous malformations (GVMs) are a rare condition which usually present in children with only a handful of cases reported in the literature. It is usually congenital and has an autosomal dominant inheritance pattern. They may be distributed throughout the body in either a localised, segmental or disseminated pattern. Pain, which is a characteristic feature of glomus tumours, is less often associated with GVMs. In addition, unlike glomus tumours which most commonly occur over acral skin surfaces, GVMs may occur throughout the body. A number of treatment options are available including surgical excision, laser treatments and sclerotherapy. We present the case of a 14-year-old boy with multiple GVMs which were treated with surgical excision and followed him up over a period of 8 years.
多发性静脉球瘤(GVMs)是一种罕见病症,通常见于儿童,文献中仅有少数病例报道。它通常是先天性的,具有常染色体显性遗传模式。它们可能以局部、节段性或播散性模式分布于全身。疼痛是血管球瘤的一个特征性表现,但在GVMs中较少出现。此外,与最常见于手足皮肤表面的血管球瘤不同,GVMs可发生于全身各处。有多种治疗选择,包括手术切除、激光治疗和硬化疗法。我们报告了一例14岁患有多发性GVMs的男孩,对其进行了手术切除治疗,并随访了8年。
